Eight things to watch out for during the Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday games

This season there are a few extra chairs at the holiday table.

In addition to the standard three Thanksgiving Day games, the NFL will also host its second annual Black Friday game as part of the celebration.

Thursday begins with the Lions hosting the Bears in the teams’ first meeting of the season, with Detroit riding a nine-game winning streak and Chicago suffering five straight losses. The middle ground is a battle of backup QBs, with the Cowboys hosting the Giants in Dallas.

You should also make sure to leave room for dessert. The suddenly seething Miami Dolphins travel to Green Bay for a chilly evening against the Packers.

And when you’re back from a long day of shopping, tune in when the Chiefs host the Raiders on Friday afternoon. If the Christmas spectacular at Arrowhead last year is any indication, this one could be interesting.

The Christmas game quartet offers something for everyone. So fill your plates throughout the day on Thursday and make sure you have an extra portion on Friday. There will be plenty of football this holiday season for everyone to be thankful for.
